Knight Rider Mustang

NBC has confirmed
the revival of the Knight Rider program to TV in early 2008. The
show will begin as a 2 hour movie airing on February 17th. Although
it is exciting this show will be back on the air, the real story
is the muscle car they have selected to profile. Show writers have
decided on Ford Mustang GT500KR to take the role of KITT. The car
is portrayed in three models: KITT Remote, KITT Hero, and KITT Attack.

KITT Remote is a remotely controlled version which
is supposed to be operative from one mile away. The KITT Hero cosely
resembles a GT500 and includes a true 540hp motor for motivation.
KITT Attack includes a variety of body kit enhancements, including
spoilers and flairs literally protruding from every angle of the
car. It makes for a busy looking body treatement, but hey, this
is KITT baby!

UPDATED 'KNIGHT RIDER' REVS UP TO RETURN TO NBC FOR SPECIAL TWO-HOUR
MOVIE EVENT ON FEBRUARY 17 AS NEW KITT CAR IS REVEALED

BURBANK, Calif. - December 12, 2007 - As "Knight Rider"
-- NBC's iconic 1980s television classic that became a runaway success,
comes roaring back to life on the network with an updated sequel
that will air as a two-hour movie event on Sunday, February 17 (9-11
p.m. ET) -- NBC unveiled the new customized KITT Ford Mustang to
be featured in the series in a press event held at NBC's Burbank
Studios today.

The movie stars Justin Bruening ("Cold Case," "All
My Children"), Deanna Russo ("NCIS," "The Young
and the Restless"), Sydney Tamiia Poitier ("Veronica Mars,"
"Grindhouse") and Bruce Davison ("Breach," "Close
to Home"). In addition, David Hasselhoff (NBC's "America's
Got Talent") -- who starred in the popular lead role as Michael
Knight for four seasons during the original series -- returns as
the same character in a special guest-star appearance. Will Arnett
(NBC's "30 Rock," "Blades of Glory") will provide
the voice of KITT.

Dave Bartis ("Heist," "The O.C.") and Doug
Liman ("Mr. and Mrs. Smith," "The Bourne Identity")
serve as executive producers.
NBC also has an arrangement with Ford Motor Company that provides
for a unique content opportunity that makes the Ford Mustang one
of the stars of the movie.

The three cars to be employed in the series include the KITT Hero
-- a Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR that is playing the part of the
everyday Hero car with 540 horsepower; the KITT Attack -- a super
high-speed version of the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR Hero car that
transforms into Attack mode with the help of air-ride technology
and specialized body parts -- and a KITT Remote, which is a driverless
Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR version of the Hero vehicle.

As the original story resumes, the new KITT (Knight Industries
Three Thousand) is absolutely the coolest car ever created: its
supercomputer capable of hacking almost any system; its weapons
systems efficient; and its body -- thanks to its creator's work
and nanotechnology -- is capable of actually shifting shape and
color. Plus, its artificial intelligence makes it the ideal crime-fighting
partner: logical, precise and possessing infinite knowledge. It
is the ultimate car -- and someone will be willing to do anything
to obtain it.

Sarah Graiman is a 24-year old Ph.D candidate at Stanford University,
following in her genius father Charles' (Davison) footsteps. But
when men attempt to abduct her, Sarah receives a mysterious call
from KITT warning her that he's a creation of Charles, who also
invented the first KITT 25 years ago -- and that her father is in
serious danger.

Sarah and KITT track down her best friend from childhood, Mike
Tracer (Bruening), a 23-year-old ex-Army Ranger, whom Sarah hasn't
seen since he left home at 18. Having served in Iraq, Mike is now
jaded and lost and initially resistant. Eventually he agrees to
help Sarah and the two set out to discover who's behind the attempt
to procure KITT and find Charles. Along the way, Carrie Rivai (Poitier)
plays the agile yet tough FBI agent who has a long-standing friendship
with Charles and Sarah. Due to those ties, she is brought into the
mix to help in the search.

David Andron is supervising producer and writer. Steve Shill ("Dexter,"
"The Tudors"), also a co-executive producer, directs the
two-hour movie from Universal Media Studios and Dutch Oven Productions.
